How to Read the Bible Without a Theology Degree (& Actually Enjoy It) | Faith Womack (Bonus Episode)

How to Read the Bible Without a Theology Degree (& Actually Enjoy It) | Faith Womack (Bonus Episode)

For those who are new here, I occasionally release bonus episodes designed for a specific part of my audience. I have listeners from all kinds of faith backgrounds, and this episode is shared from a Christian perspective. If that’s not quite what you’re looking for today, feel free to explore the other episodes released this week—or join me back here next Tuesday for a conversation you won’t want to miss!

------------------

Today’s guest says the Bible was never meant to be boring - it’s that we’ve forgotten how to read it with curiosity and context. Author and content creator Faith Womack, founder of Bible Nerd Ministries and author of No More Boring Bible Study, is on a mission to help everyday Christians rediscover Scripture as a living story, not a rulebook. In this episode, we talk about breaking free from spiritual burnout, understanding literary genres in the Bible, and how to bring your faith back to life - without needing a theology degree. If you’ve ever felt disconnected from Scripture or unsure where to start, this conversation will remind you that God’s Word was written for you, not just scholars.

EP199: Messy Minimalism: Realistic Strategies for the Rest of Us with Rachelle Crawford

EP199: Messy Minimalism: Realistic Strategies for the Rest of Us with Rachelle Crawford

Think minimalism means a perfectly curated, always tidy home? Think again. Drowning in tides of toys, overflowing closets, and a crazy schedule, Rachelle Crawford assumed you had to be naturally organized to keep a tidy living space. Then she found minimalism: the messy, real-life kind, that is less about perfection and more about purpose. Becoming a messy minimalist is not about turning into someone else; it's about clearing away clutter and expectations to unearth who you really are. Join me today as I speak with Rachelle about her journey into 'messy minimalism' and how we can inspire those around us to begin their own step into minimalism (whether big or small!)----Show Notes for EP199: Messy Minimalism: Realistic Strategies for the Rest of UsEnjoy this Podcast?Post a review and share it! If you enjoyed tuning into this podcast, then do not hesitate to write a review.

EP198: Initiating Stronger Relationships with Our Children with Vanessa Quigley

EP198: Initiating Stronger Relationships with Our Children with Vanessa Quigley

My guess is if you surveyed any mom, she’d likely tell you she desires more intentional time with her child(ren). Whether she’s a working mom or stay-at-home mom, our days fill up fast. Not to mention, as our family grows or, inevitably, as our children grow older, it can be tricky to find the time to intentionally pursue them. Tricky but not impossible. Here today to offer wisdom from her own experience as the mother to seven children is founder of Chatbooks, Vanessa Quigley. She talks about what she’s done to initiate stronger relationships with each of them and how we can apply some of these methods in our own lives.----Show Notes for EP198: Initiating Stronger Relationships with Our ChildrenEnjoy this Podcast?Post a review and share it! If you enjoyed tuning into this podcast, then do not hesitate to write a review.

You long for tender moments with your children--but do you ever find yourself too busy to stop, make eye contact, and say something you really mean?

EP196: Becoming Intentional with Money Management with Erin Skye Kelly

EP196: Becoming Intentional with Money Management with Erin Skye Kelly

I usually don’t share guest quotes prior to the interview but my guest today, author, Erin Skye Kelly said something that really stuck with me, “Debt Is Clutter.” Debt is clutter and it leads to a lack of freedom. It was this lesson that I had to learn before I began to pursue the purging of material things. Intentionality with my finances came first and the clutter followed. This episode won’t suddenly eradicate your debt but I hope it provides you with tools and inspiration to see that debt freedom is attainable through discipline, but first and foremost, intentionality! ----Show Notes for EP196: Becoming Intentional with Money ManagementEnjoy this Podcast?Post a review and share it! If you enjoyed tuning into this podcast, then do not hesitate to write a review.

EP195: Feeling Confident in Your Capsule Wardrobe with Kim Hancher

EP195: Feeling Confident in Your Capsule Wardrobe with Kim Hancher

On today’s episode, I speak with style coach, Kim Hancher. Kim teaches women how to create their unique style, dress their body type, and curate a capsule wardrobe so that they feel confident doing something you have to do every day, get dressed. In this episode, she discusses how to consciously curate a capsule wardrobe and (beyond that) how to wear more of the clothes you already have in your closet right now by incorporating her tried and true style concepts. Before we get into the conversation, I’ll leave you with this quote from fashion and beauty writer, Rae Ritchie, she says, “It’s a misconception to think that minimalism and fashion are incompatible. It’s still possible to remain up to date with major trends and have a small capsule wardrobe. You just have to be judicious in your choices. Treat how you dress as a fun creative hobby, a chance to play. With a foundation of versatile basics, you can easily drop in a few items that catch your eye.” I’d have to agree.----Show Notes for EP195: Feeling Confident in Your Capsule WardrobeEnjoy this Podcast?Post a review and share it! If you enjoyed tuning into this podcast, then do not hesitate to write a review.
